Which of the following play centers teaches the children to follow directions?

A. Listening
B. Dramatic
C. Library
D. Block

answer a.

I agree.

I would not have picked that. I would have said dramatic because

if you are acting you have to follow the script and the director. HOWEVER take Ms Sue's advice and check your text. (I would have picked football team practice but it is not on the list). These questions are so vague I could justify any old answer. However your text has the answer they want.

actually, football practice involves quite a lot of listening.

I thought marriage involved a lot of listening. And sometimes the children get an ear full.

To determine which play center teaches children to follow directions, you can analyze the options provided and consider the characteristics of each center.

Option A: Listening - This play center may involve activities that require children to listen and follow verbal instructions, such as following a set of directions to complete a task or playing games that require active listening.

Option B: Dramatic - The dramatic play center encourages children to engage in pretend play and use their imagination. While it may indirectly promote teamwork and coordination, it may not solely focus on teaching children to follow specific directions.

Option C: Library - The library play center typically emphasizes literacy skills and encourages reading and learning through books and storytelling. While following storylines and understanding instructions to complete library activities are part of the learning experience, it may not primarily focus on explicit direction-following skills.

Option D: Block - The block play center involves building and construction activities using blocks or other building materials. This center may not necessarily emphasize following specific directions, as it encourages open-ended exploration and creativity.

Given these considerations, option A (Listening) is the most suitable play center that explicitly teaches children to follow directions. It provides opportunities for children to practice active listening and follow instructions, enabling them to develop important direction-following skills.
